Learning how to play gospel keys in the beginning can be super exciting, challenging, frustrating, and even overwhelming all at once.
Sometimes in the beginning it can be very tempting to go straight for all of the tricks and treats and start blazing right out of the gate. Even though we must crawl before we walk, most don’t really want to. Most people want to start running full speed right out the gate and instantly become this phenomenal musician.
The truth is, there is a process and we all have to go through it.
When I was a younger musician, all I wanted to do was learn the fancy chords and blaze but i couldn’t because I didn’t fully know the basics yet. (Even though some people can kind of get away with it because their musical ear is more developed)
Here’s a story about a time when I had the privilege to learn from one of the greatest gospel musicians in the state of Virginia and what he taught me about playing gospel piano chords.
Sitting down and learning from one of the greatest gospel musicians in the state of Virginia changed the way that I viewed the keyboard.
The thing that blew my mind was the fact that he didn’t teach me any new or blazing chords. In fact, the only chord that he taught me that I didn’t already know was the tritone.
